Psalms 97
1 YHWH has reigned, The earth is joyful, many islands rejoice.
Mukama afuga; ensi esanyuke, n’embalama eziri ewala zijaguze.
2 Cloud and darkness [are] around Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.
Ebire n’ekizikiza bimwetooloola; obutuukirivu n’obwenkanya gwe musingi gw’entebe y’obwakabaka bwe.
3 Fire goes before Him, And burns around His adversaries.
Omuliro gumukulembera ne gwokya abalabe be ku njuyi zonna.
4 His lightnings have lightened the world, The earth has seen, and is pained.
Okumyansa kwe kumulisa ensi; ensi n’ekulaba n’ekankana.
5 Hills, like wax, melted before YHWH, Before the Lord of all the earth.
Ensozi zisaanuuka ng’envumbo awali Mukama, mu maaso ga Mukama ow’ensi yonna.
6 The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His glory.
Eggulu lirangirira obutuukirivu bwe; n’abantu bonna ne balaba ekitiibwa kye.
7 All servants of a carved image are ashamed, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to Him, all you gods.
Abasinza ebifaananyi ebikole n’emikono bonna baswadde, abo abeenyumiririza mu bifaananyi ebyole. Mumusinze mwe mwenna bakatonda.
8 Zion has heard and rejoices, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Your judgments, O YHWH.
Sayuuni akiwulira n’asanyuka, n’ebyalo bya Yuda bijaguza; kubanga ogoberera eby’ensonga, Ayi Katonda.
9 For You, YHWH, [are] Most High over all the earth, You have been exalted greatly over all gods.
Kubanga ggwe, Ayi Mukama, oli waggulu nnyo okusinga ensi; ogulumizibwa okusinga bakatonda bonna.
10 You who love YHWH, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
Abo abaagala Mukama bakyawa ekibi, akuuma obulamu bw’abamwesiga, n’abawonya okuva mu mukono gw’omukozi w’ebibi.
11 Light [is] sown for the righteous, And joy for the upright of heart.
Omusana gwe gwakira abatuukirivu, n’abalina omutima ogw’amazima bajjula essanyu.
12 Rejoice, you righteous, in YHWH, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness!
Musanyukirenga mu Mukama mmwe abatuukirivu, era mwebazenga erinnya lye ettukuvu.
